Hate to see Tomatoville shutting down, but I think I was expecting it. Glad to find a place where the old crowd gathers. Happy Holidays to everyone. I'm getting my eyes done for some cataracts, and the right one is good and the left gets worked on the 17th. It'll have to do as my birthday gift to myself.

Hi Ted
Good luck with your surgery. My husband had his done and it's made a big difference. It's great to have a place for old Tomatoville folks.

Good luck tomorrow, not that you'll need it. I hope all will go swimmingly, with those new sharp eyes.

Hey Ted, I am glad to see you here. I will be with you every step of the way. It's really easy. I had mine done last Monday. Takes awhile to get used to the new sights. Brain freezes with all the new info.

Yay Ted, will be thinking of you on your surgery. Great to hear the recovery is quick, MissS ! My mom is on a wait list, may be a full year before she gets them done... I just know it's going to make a huge difference.

It sure will. It's a whole new world out there and I still am in recovery. Can't see perfect yet, but each day has been a new adventure. But a year on a wait list is just too long... Sigh

All has gone "swimmingly" (to coin someone's phrase) and the difference is remarkable. I had my right eye done because it was really getting hard to focus it. This degradation happened in a very short period of time (like 6 months). It is also my dominant eye and had been messing with my shooting accuracy. Anyhow, they are both done now and I wonder what I was fearing about it. I can read the smallest print easily as long as it's at least 3 feet away. I've had light astigmatisms for decades, and they don't go away (I'm told). They were no cost to me as my medicare and Tricare for life covered everything.
So, right now I'm 5 days out of the work on my left eye and 19 days out on my right eye. Just a few moments ago, I drove to the store and got a few things for my birthday dinner. That happens this coming Tuesday. We're gonna have Steak and Shrimp, which are two of my favorite tastes. :>)
Thanks to all for your kind comments. I'm always amazed that so many care.
Take care and hug someone. It'll make both of you feel better.

Happy Birthday Ted and congratulations! I remember an older relative getting one of the 1st of these repairs and she said it was like a miracle. Good to know you'll be able to see your tomatoes this year!
